A Grant from the Pelorus Trust benefited the community from Paihia School, enabling students to take a trip close to nature.

I learnt to make traps with Bj. We had some tools to build the trap for the Mice. We had to move everything inside because it was raining. We Decorated them on the top, sides and bottom.
